1998 Volvo S70 GLT Versions?

Post by Teslacoilftw »

I tried to google it but the responses that come up in the search engine don't have any thing specific.
I was at the Junk Yard the other day looking for a part for my 1998 VOlvo S70 GLT and the vehicle they had there was in fact a 98 Volvo S70 GLT. It had Really nice Wood Trim Interior and a Informational Display Function on the Dash. Also it had Duel Powered and Heated Seats!!! Is there any way I can Take these things and integrate them into my car without major Electrical or mechanical work?

As always any help is greatly Appreciated!

98 GLT and T5 could be had in different packages. Heated seats with headlamp wipers and TRACS is winter package. dual power seats and a better head unit (radio) is Premium package (I remember it as Premium, may have been some other name).
The cluster can be put in your car. The info display is activated on the cluster if not part of equipment group by a PIN code dealer used to be able to get for a fee and program using a scantool on 98's.
Heated seat wiring is in your car. Switch wiring is stored under switch filler blanks by console coin tray and the harness plugs for seat connectors are under seats where you find them plugged into that car at JY. You should check your car for vacant plugs under seat. There may be chassis number break below which the wiring is not there.
